Sanremo has continued to refine its commercial espresso machine range with the introduction of the Autosteam feature on the D8 and D8 Pro. Designed to add a small level of automation to a traditional espresso setup, Autosteam aims to improve milk consistency, reduce reliance on advanced barista skills, and support faster service during busy periods.

Take a quick look at how it works in our recent video below!

 

The Sanremo D8 and D8 Pro are, at their core, traditional commercial espresso machines. They’re built for businesses that care about coffee quality, want control over their recipes, and value the look and feel of a proper barista setup. The Autosteam feature doesn’t change that. Instead, it adds a layer of automation where it often matters most: milk.

What the Autosteam Feature Actually Does

The Autosteam is an optional add-on to the Sanremo D8 espresso machines that replaces one of your steam wands with an upgraded, automatic steam wand.

The wand can still be used for manual steaming, but the addition of two buttons allows users to configure multiple automatic steam profiles. Steam profiles can be set up to steam to your exact desired temperature and texture, letting any business cater the results perfectly for their customers.

How To Use the Autosteam

In use, Autosteam is incredibly straightforward. The steam arm has three buttons. At the top is a manual purge button, which is there for cleaning before and after each drink, and to allow for manual steaming if preferred. Below that are two programmable buttons.

Those two buttons can be set up however the business needs. Many operators choose to programme one for dairy milk and the other for oat or another alternative milk. Others use them for different jug sizes or temperature profiles.

To use it, the process is simple. Fill a jug with milk, place the steam wand into the jug, and press one of the programmed buttons. The machine then takes over, steaming the milk to the temperature and texture that has been set, and stopping automatically when it is finished.

That's it. Simple user interaction, great results.

Is The Autosteam Right for Your Business?

Autosteam is a great fit for cafés, restaurants, hotels, and hospitality venues that want to serve high-quality coffee but also need consistency and efficiency. It’s especially useful for teams with mixed levels of experience or for businesses where coffee service needs to be reliable across every shift.

If you want the look, feel, and quality of a traditional espresso machine, with a helping hand when it comes to milk, the Sanremo D8 Pro with Autosteam is well worth considering.
